I am aware of pretty much all the FTC discussions, and the revolving
door with it and the energy sector.

Unscheduled maintenance seems not to have entered into it at all.

I just follow the money, and note where it goes.  It goes from
consumers to energy companies for the Oddest of reasons.  And the
things, like conservation and increased mileage requirements for
vehicles and such, that would result in lower use and/or maybe lower
prices for consumers are regularly opposed by the energy sector.

Which is not BS by any stretch of the imagination.

Not at all.  The previous refineries are all subject to reopening,
with little to no environmental regulations involved.  That's what
grandfathering in will do for you.

The awlbidniss and energy sectors like to whine that Their actions are
somehow directed by the enviros, but it's not the case.

If they want to reopen and upgrade a refinery pretty much anywhere,
they Can do that.

They don't want to do that, especially not with Their money.  And most
especially when doing that would possibly increase supply but not
margin.

No fools they!

Follow the money.  The rest is just PR.
